[06:56:41] Chris: Lets begin
[06:58:31] Chris: Nyx, you have one more immediate HF to roll and that is upon chancing upon Gav'leth in the hallway as you are escorted from one compartment to another.
[06:59:50] Febrith Nyx: [1d20] => [10] = (10)
[06:59:58] GM: Down goes Fraiser
[07:00:26] Febrith Nyx presses against the far wall and tries to sneak away before running in terror.
[07:01:29] GM: Your new nickename among the crew is 'Vapors'
[07:01:37] GM: As in, oh great, she has the vapors again
[07:03:17] CWO3 Sarah: (( lmao! ))
[07:03:49] Febrith Nyx begins to analyze the crew and give them nicknames in her native language…
[07:04:09] GM: The nearby crewmen keep you from running and hustle you down the hall while a perplexed Gav'leth is left scratching his head. The crewmen snicker, laughing sympathetically, as they really dont know what else to do, and wonder what random stimuli will cause a similer reaction from their dark skinned long eared guest.
[07:06:21] GM: You are taken to a room with many seats (Link in AIM) , albiet smaller and are directed to a seat towards the front.
[07:07:22] CWO3 Sarah: (( lol ))
[07:08:19] Febrith Nyx sits in a chair and wonder why she's here.
[07:09:36] GM: A few pilots (using normal language here, Nyx can draw her own conclusions) are towards the back chatting and the almond eyed female is at the head of the room speaking to two other pilots. Their conversation concludes, they stand and walk past Nyx out of the room.
[07:11:22] GM: The deamon familier enteres after the other leave and one guard stands at Nyx's elbow while the second one talks to the almond eyes woman.
[07:12:13] Febrith Nyx looks at the group and assumes that this was brief. Febrith then looks at the guard and wonders how much fun she could have with his head, before looking at the demon and its pet.
[07:12:58] Cpt Ishida (Delta Actual) approaches Nyx and stands at arms length at parade rest. (it is now obvious to Nyx that these folks are part of some sort of military faction, and that you are likely aboard some sort of ship.
[07:14:21] Cpt Ishida (Delta Actual): Did you sleep well?
[07:14:42] Cpt Ishida (Delta Actual) says in slow deliberate Chellic, albiet with one hell of an accent.
[07:14:55] Febrith Nyx: As well as I could, your pillows aren't as plush as I'm used to, but I've slept on far worse.
[07:15:57] Cpt Ishida (Delta Actual) nods.
[07:16:39] Cpt Ishida (Delta Actual): We found the remains of your air ship, and that of a surface ship. There were no survivors that we could locate.
[07:20:01] GM: For the UEEF folks, the pair of rabbits with fighter escort landed their during the night and did a recon, there were a lot of bodies, and there was the signs of a firefight. The locals stood no chance as they were attacked by modern weaponry, and the remenants of their hastily erected defencive line (complete with over turned lifeboat bunkers, wooden framing barricades and a few maxim gun nests) were obliterated, the efects of the weapons were identicle to the effect noted on the crew of the derelict space ship you found earlier.
[07:20:17] Febrith Nyx: Did you shoot them down? I know when I was shot down a shot was fired from the ground at me.
[07:21:33] Cpt Ishida (Delta Actual) refrains from shaking her head no, for all she knows taht might mean yes to these folks. instead she just speaks.
[07:21:38] Cpt Ishida (Delta Actual): No, we did not.
[07:23:13] Febrith Nyx: Well, then, we have a mystery on our hands. Neither the enemy naval ship nor my zeplin had the capacity to cause that much damage. Mayber their is a mechanism, or ancient defense here on Dark Island meant to dissuade visitors. Oooooh, I can't wait to find it and take it apart to see how it ticks.
[07:23:23] Febrith Nyx rubs her hands gleefully.
[07:24:24] Cpt Ishida (Delta Actual): Am I to understand that no one from the warring states to the north have explored this island?
[07:25:40] Febrith Nyx: This island is marked forbidden by the priesthood and it took extraordinary circumstances for them to agree to send a small party here. And even then, I'm looking forward to a long cleansing process that may very well result in my death when I get back.
[07:26:06] Febrith Nyx: I mean there were rumors, but no one ever made it back.
[07:27:10] Cpt Ishida (Delta Actual) nods, and you can see her 'wheel's a spinning'
[07:28:35] Cpt Ishida (Delta Actual): Right then, well, you have been cooped up here long enough, we will let you spend some time out of doors. I would not reccomend leaving the encampment. If you do, we wont come after you. Consider that a warning, and an offer.
[07:29:20] Febrith Nyx quirks a brow.
[07:29:30] Cpt Ishida (Delta Actual): Miss Arashul? Please show our guest out and watch over her.
[07:29:38] Febrith Nyx: "Are you people all this nice or are you all just trying to get into my bed?"
[07:29:39] Balaa smiles
[07:29:43] Balaa: Yes ma'am!
[07:29:59] Balaa salutes (indoors! the horror) playfully.
[07:30:23] CWO3 Sarah: (( timing. it's priceless ))
[07:30:52] Cpt Ishida (Delta Actual) coughs and smirks slightly.
[07:31:05] Cpt Ishida (Delta Actual) reamins silent however.
[07:31:28] Febrith Nyx follows Balaa outside and Nyx begins to survey the general area and the exterior of the ship.
[07:31:40] Balaa pokes Nyx's shoulder with a deamon claw and motiones towards the hatchway.
[07:32:45] Febrith Nyx: So a sky ship made of metal alloy. How many miles to the sould does it get?
[07:33:11] Febrith Nyx: ((miles to the soul))
[07:33:32] GM: The encampment is something like one wuld see on a pacific island during WWII, hoocehs and such, crude, but sturdy, there is a pallisade and a few watch towers, you also see from ground level what have to be air to air implacements , sandbagged revetments under camo netting with a large wicked looking gun.
[07:34:19] GM: beyond that, the rest of it is as described earlier
[07:34:47] Febrith Nyx: Prepped for a war I see.
[07:35:31] GM: For all intents and purposes there are no sleeping areas out here, the encampment is more for rest, peremeter defence although there is a small tading post for the island locals.
[07:37:28] Febrith Nyx observes the local's behavior for hints of external influence, i.e. survivors that made it to the island but never got off. [1d20] => [8] = (8) PERC, [1d100] => [21] = (21) vs 78 Anthropology, [1d100] => [44] = (44) vs 63 Psychology, [1d100] => [10] = (10) vs 59 Intelligence.
[07:37:29] GM: There is also a flat area with steel plating with a pair of Rabbit shuttles resting within sandbagged slots.
[07:38:46] Febrith Nyx: those are the most curious looking planes I've ever seen.
[07:39:07] GM: You do notice a few suits of wooden armor that look very reminisent to the armor used during your medival period, you figure, the locals either saw it an emulated it, or came with it, were unable to create more out of metal, and went to wood instead.
[07:40:58] GM: Armed and armored guards keep you from getting to close to the boxy metal craft.
[07:43:16] GM: after about an hour or puttering thru camp and getting a bite to eat at a rather well appointed mess hooch, (all things considered) you hear a few shots ring out that you recognize s coming from your nations premier rifle (your version of the 1903 Springfield)
[07:44:27] Febrith Nyx: Seems some of my country man did survive…
[07:44:45] Febrith Nyx goes looking for where the shot came from.
[07:44:48] 2Lt. Aylanea blinks over from her meal at the gunshots.
[07:44:51] Febrith Nyx: [1d20] => [12] = (12) PERC
[07:45:37] 2LT Kain Crokett immediately goes into an alert status and radios the tower for battle status.
[07:46:32] CWO3 Sarah swears softly as she hears the shots, checking her CVR and makign sure it's on, pulling the helmet on and checking her own weapons.
[07:46:39] GM: ((kain, you dont need to, you know where the shots are coming from, the rabbits returned with loot if you will from the wrecjage, those rifles are being used by VM crew on the outdoor range
[07:46:46] 2Lt. Aylanea: (( lol oh ))
[07:46:56] CWO3 Sarah: (( ignore that then :p ))
[07:47:27] GM: Nyx, a few armored guards notice the shots, and appear to talk into their helmets, then, go about their business.
[07:48:40] 2LT Kain Crokett: Heh, they found local weapons in the wreckage and they are testing them in the range calm down people.
[07:49:05] Febrith Nyx: [1d20] => [5] = (5) PERC ((to see if she hears Kain say that…))
[07:49:28] GM: Negarive, either didnt catch it, or not in the same location
[07:51:02] CWO3 Sarah glances over towards the range from where she is, and looks around the camp at large. [1d20+1] => [4,1] = (5) (perc to seei f she notices Nyx out with guards)
[07:51:06] CWO3 Sarah: (( guess not ))
[07:51:07] CWO3 Sarah: (( lol ))
[07:51:08] Balaa leads Nyx over to the range.
[07:52:18] Febrith Nyx sees them testing the rifle and laughs at the silly creatures using the rifle like it was a toy.
[07:52:30] Febrith Nyx: "Doesn't take much to get them excited does it?
[07:53:54] GM: Well, it's not like they are hooting and hollering and waving them around shooting crazily into the air. The shooters, including the almosd eyed one, are taking their time, monitoring and recording their shots like your armies Farshot Masters.
[07:54:58] GM: You recognize that what they are doing is what you and your order do with captured weapons
[07:55:40] GM: But other then that, yes, they are thorougly enjoying themselves
[07:56:32] Febrith Nyx: So, Ishida was it? How does my people's best rifle hold up against your own weapons?
[07:57:16] Cpt Ishida (Delta Actual) romoves her ear protection and rolls onto her back from the prone position she was in while firing.
[07:58:15] Cpt Ishida (Delta Actual): For it's type it is very accurate, and has a solid action, the trigger pull is a might stiff however. But, I figure thats to prevent misfires.
[07:58:35] Cpt Ishida (Delta Actual): Since there is no safety to speak of.
[07:59:32] Cpt Ishida (Delta Actual) pulls the rifle over her, barrel down range and works the bolt to eject her last cartridge, then sets the rifle aside, rolls to a sitting position and gets up, slinging the rifle over her shoulder.
[08:00:06] Cpt Ishida (Delta Actual): I guess some things never change.
[08:00:18] Cpt Ishida (Delta Actual) she smirks, flicking the bayonet lug with her finger.
[08:00:44] CWO3 Sarah wanders over to the shooting range eventually, to look at the guns and watch the firing as well, and see what else is going on there.
[08:00:51] Febrith Nyx: Maybe if we had radically different physiologies, but I imagine there is a limit to efficiency that the universe allows for Trow-like life.
[08:01:15] Cpt Ishida (Delta Actual) isnt sure what she just said.
[08:01:22] Cpt Ishida (Delta Actual) shrugs.
[08:01:58] Cpt Ishida (Delta Actual) sets the rifle down on a nearby table and field strips it.
[08:02:31] GM: Sarah you arrive
[08:02:37] GM: ((a chalanger appears))
[08:03:15] Febrith Nyx: ((insert canned trash talk))
[08:03:18] CWO3 Sarah: (( lol. ))
[08:03:21] CWO3 Sarah: (( hehehehehehe ))
[08:03:26] CWO3 Sarah: (( I'm not a challenger. ;p ))
[08:03:47] GM: Sarah, the Marines are having a good time with the rifles and are involved in a shooting competition with the VM fleet crewers. And, dispite the decent showing the fleet is making, the marines trounce them handily.
[08:05:41] CWO3 Sarah laughs just a little as she sees the shooting competition, raising her eyebrows and shaking her head slightly. She considers seeing if it's still open to more joining the contest, but notices Suki stripping the rifle, and gets more curious about that, wandering over in that direction, though not saying anything yet, as she watches the process.
[08:06:06] GM: A few days go by, and Nyx manages to catch glimpses of what the news papers in her nation created the 'sky lines' Pictures of modern aircraft in the ready room, very sleek, and with no propellors, but clearly depicted in flgiht.
[08:07:22] Febrith Nyx: So what manner of sorcery allows you to fly without engines?
[08:08:02] Balaa: Oh, they use something called protoculture. It comes from a plant.
[08:09:35] GM: As you converse, (it is night time outside) and you guys are in the ships messhall nomming on MidRats
[08:09:56] GM: This of course horrifies Nyx…why would you eat…rats…
[08:10:21] GM: And what manner of sorery causes a rat to look like mashed potatoes and saled…
[08:10:33] CWO3 Sarah: (( hehehe ))
[08:10:36] Febrith Nyx: Seriously, they feed their military personnel vermin? DO they think of you as disposable grunts?
[08:10:55] Balaa laughs
[08:11:07] Balaa: No no, it means Midnight Rations.
[08:11:59] Febrith Nyx: Ah, a shortening of common terminology to reduce the amount of speakign one has to do. I understand. Very well, I will have a midrat…
[08:13:40] CWO3 Sarah eats hers, laughing just a little at the 'disposable grunts' bit ( if it's translated)
[08:14:12] Balaa: You are given a midrat and it comes with an an item wrapped in an odd clear coating. Nyx, apparenlty these people have enslaved a race of tiny humanoids and have pulled their limbs off and packaged them for consumption, the yellowish one appears to have been some sort of cowboy, and the circular black one a naval officer.
[08:15:28] Febrith Nyx notices the girl with the taint and decides to interview her after getting her wierd little packages and goes sits.
[08:15:42] Febrith Nyx: I'll be sitting here as long as their are no objections.
[08:16:25] GM: ((wow, no one got the Hostess Twinkie joke..))
[08:16:29] CWO3 Sarah smiles and shrugs. "Fine by me…"
[08:16:30] CWO3 Sarah: (( lol ))
[08:16:31] CWO3 Sarah: (( ew ))
[08:16:53] GM: ((well, LOOK at a twinkie wrapper.. ))
[08:16:58] CWO3 Sarah: (( yeah. lol ))
[08:17:39] Febrith Nyx puts one of the twinkies in her mouth without removing the plastic and bites into it…
[08:18:30] GM: There is no taste whatsoever and a few crewmen laugh
[08:18:35] CWO3 Sarah blinks a little at that. "Might taste better with the plastic wrap off. Need to keep the food protected for long term storage."
[08:18:51] Febrith Nyx pulls it out of her mouth and looks at it. "Whoever designed this is evil. Plastic wrapper?"
[08:19:17] GM: roll a perc Nyx
[08:19:28] Febrith Nyx: [1d20] => [10] = (10)
[08:19:43] 2Lt. Aylanea snickers. "Yeah, what's the old story about Twinkies? That they'd survive through basically anything?" She shakes her head.
[08:19:43] GM: You notice on the wall the nudie calander.
[08:19:49] 2Lt. Aylanea: (( lmao ))
[08:20:17] GM: Scandelous
[08:20:34] GM: well, actually, for Trow…not really…
[08:20:45] 2Lt. Aylanea: (( hehehe ))
[08:20:50] GM: except that their necks are un covered, which is, well, scandelous
[08:22:21] GM: As you eat the PA system blares to life as the ships alarm kicks off. LOCKDOWN LOCKDOWN LOCKDOWN! All defence teams to aft engineering!
[08:22:52] Febrith Nyx: I've noticed a prepensity of your kind to not cover your necks, that must not be a taboo to you people.
[08:23:04] GM: A few crewman that were eating ditch their food grab their helmets and bolt from the room,
[08:23:15] 2LT Kain Crokett runs to the aft engineering
[08:23:30] CWO3 Sarah blinks up at that and swears very softly, hopping up to head for aft engineering. "Excuse me a moment…"
[08:23:41] GM: The cook dogs the hatch to the mess hall after Sarah races out.
[08:23:43] Febrith Nyx: I think it would probably be best if I stay put, don't want to get shot being in the wrong spot.
[08:23:53] 2Lt. Aylanea races out along with Sarah of course.
[08:24:19] CWO3 Sarah checiks her weapon as she hurries to aft engineering.
[08:25:15] GM: The non armored folks in the mess hall flip the tables over on their stowage brackets and withdraw pistols and cover the entrance. Balaa sits back and touches Nyx's forehead and there is a shimmer of light around Nyx that conforms to her body. Balaa does the same to all the non armored folks including herself.
[08:26:12] Febrith Nyx: Must be an attack…
[08:26:26] GM: Kain, you meet up with Suki and Ay in the corridor, they are in CVR-3, hasitly applied.
[08:26:43] GM: Further aft you hear automatic weapons fire.
[08:26:44] CWO3 Sarah: (( and me :p lol ))
[08:26:46] CWO3 Sarah: (( hehe ))
[08:26:52] GM: Sarah you jog on up.
[08:27:04] GM: Suki tosses you an M-90
[08:27:18] 2LT Komillia Maeless grabs her Praxian axe and goes running up to the others.
[08:27:35] CWO3 Sarah hurries to the others, frowning at the automatic fire. "Damn.." She takes the 90 and checks it, nodding.
[08:27:58] 2LT Kain Crokett: Any word on who or what broke in?
[08:28:02] CWO3 Sarah: (( or not taking a 90, got my own. ))
[08:28:06] GM: ((disregard Suki's last Sarah is the armed just like everyone should be
[08:28:47] Colonial Marine leans over hearing the question
[08:29:04] Colonial Marine: I think someone broke into engineering, got caught in the act.
[08:29:28] Cpt Ishida (Delta Actual) looks down the hall.
[08:29:39] Cpt Ishida (Delta Actual): Okay, lets move, while the corridor is clear.
[08:29:46] CWO3 Sarah frowns at that, nodding. "Yes, ma'am!"
[08:30:04] 2LT Kain Crokett follows the rest fo the group down the corridor.
[08:30:06] Cpt Ishida (Delta Actual) hustles down the corridor aft.
[08:30:19] CWO3 Sarah hurries along with the others.
[08:30:36] 2Lt. Aylanea hurries along as well.
[08:30:38] GM: There is a sperodic burst of fire then a gurgling scream.
[08:30:45] GM: From around the corner.
[08:30:56] CWO3 Sarah flinches very slightly at that.
[08:32:13] Cpt Ishida (Delta Actual) being armored readies her weapon pokes out around the bend using cover.
[08:32:23] Cpt Ishida (Delta Actual): [1d20+3] => [5,3] = (8) perc
[08:32:35] Cpt Ishida (Delta Actual): Man down, no hostile in sight.
[08:32:44] 2LT Kain Crokett: [1d20] => [15] = (15)
[08:32:52] 2LT Kain Crokett: ((+1 so 16))
[08:32:55] Cpt Ishida (Delta Actual) movs into the corriodr slowly,
[08:32:57] 2LT Komillia Maeless: [1d20] => [10] = (10)
[08:32:59] CWO3 Sarah: [1d20+1] => [14,1] = (15)
[08:33:38] 2Lt. Aylanea: [1d20] => [8] = (8)
[08:33:47] GM: Kain, you (and only you) notice a odd light shimmer from the cieling about 20 feet down, 15 feet away from Suki.
[08:34:03] CWO3 Sarah: (( heh. lucky +1. ))
[08:35:13] GM: the 15's you notice the dead crewman was implaed by some blade of some sort
[08:35:18] 2LT Kain Crokett: Shimmer on the ceiling, 20 feet dwon and 15 feet away from you Captain.
[08:35:32] GM: [1d20+3+2] => [8,3,2] = (13) Suki perc.
[08:35:45] Cpt Ishida (Delta Actual) raises her weapon but see's nothing.
[08:35:52] Cpt Ishida (Delta Actual): No joy!
[08:36:04] Cpt Ishida (Delta Actual) fires a burst blindly anyway
[08:36:05] CWO3 Sarah blinks at the blade impalement, frowning severely at the situation.
[08:36:11] Cpt Ishida (Delta Actual): [1d20+11-10] => [9,11,-10] = (10)
[08:36:43] GM: [1d20+10] => [17,10] = (27)
[08:36:59] 2LT Kain Crokett fries in the genral direction of the shimmer. [1d20+8] => [17,8] = (25)
[08:37:17] GM: There is a more pronounced shimmer as whatever it was moves to evade Suki's burst. Apparently her blid shot got close enough to worry it.
[08:37:24] GM: [1d20+10] => [12,10] = (22)
[08:37:27] GM: Damage
[08:37:41] GM: As it moves Kain, you peg it
[08:37:55] 2LT Kain Crokett: [2d5*10+20] => 80
[08:38:00] 2LT Kain Crokett: [1d4*10+20] => 60
[08:38:01] CWO3 Sarah: (( woot. ))
[08:38:16] 2LT Kain Crokett: ((typos was the first one))
[08:38:43] GM: There is a slew of sparkles around the target, some sort of cloak fails momntarily to reeal a lithe (pattenko) female in black armor with blood red glowing goggles.
[08:38:53] CWO3 Sarah: (( don't forget the ( ) around the 1d4*10 ))
[08:38:54] GM: reveal
[08:39:16] GM: inits.
[08:39:35] 2LT Kain Crokett: [1d20+2] => [10,2] = (12)
[08:39:44] CWO3 Sarah: [1d20+3] => [8,3] = (11)
[08:39:49] 2LT Komillia Maeless: [1d20+2] => [14,2] = (16)
[08:39:49] GM: Suki [1d20+7] => [7,7] = (14) Enemy [1d20+6] => [12,6] = (18)
[08:40:05] 2Lt. Aylanea: [1d20+8] => [13,8] = (21)
[08:40:16] GM: Sarah
[08:40:42] GM: Enemy inturrupts and bolts down the hallway, turning the corner.
[08:41:02] CWO3 Sarah: (( :p ))
[08:41:05] CWO3 Sarah: (( heh ))
[08:41:08] GM: Blowing out the lights as she does so
[08:41:34] 2Lt. Aylanea: (( my interrupt trumps hers, yes? ))
[08:41:37] 2Lt. Aylanea: (( since I rolled hgiher? ))
[08:41:50] GM: You can int the int if you wish, but will get two actions
[08:42:15] 2Lt. Aylanea fires on the little runt as she tries to get the lights. (okay) [1d20+11+1] => [16,11,1] = (28) [1d20+11+1] => [13,11,1] = (25)
[08:42:23] 2Lt. Aylanea: (( M90C ))
[08:42:28] GM: [1d20+10] => [7,10] = (17) and [1d20+10] => [8,10] = (18)
[08:42:39] GM: two hits
[08:42:55] 2Lt. Aylanea: [(1d10*10)+12] => 22
[08:43:03] 2Lt. Aylanea: [(1d10*10)+12] => 82
[08:43:31] GM: kain what was your damage, the 80 or the 60?
[08:43:44] 2Lt. Aylanea: (( the 60 I believe ))
[08:43:46] 2Lt. Aylanea: (( hehe ))
[08:43:48] 2LT Komillia Maeless: ((60))
[08:44:06] 2LT Komillia Maeless: ((164 so far.))
[08:44:31] GM: kk, Ay, you catch the intruder just as it clears the corner and can hear the unmistakable soggy thump of bullets into flesh.
[08:44:44] 2Lt. Aylanea: (( woot ))
[08:45:38] CWO3 Sarah moves around the corner, trying to use her own energy halo as a flashlight (if the lights were taking out, if not, no need), to see if the attacker was taken down, holding weapon up and fire-ready.
[08:46:52] GM: Suki follows suite and you all come around weapons at the ready to see the intruder shredded. The left side is missing an arm, and part of her head, as well as quartet of neat holes in the torso. Were it not for the damage, she would have been attractive.
[08:47:20] GM: The intruder is also clearly Trow
[08:47:47] 2LT Komillia Maeless: "Are we clear?"
[08:47:57] GM: but the armor and survivng equipment is comprable in tech level to your own, maybe higher, in terms of miniaturization
[08:48:13] Cpt Ishida (Delta Actual) looks at Ay.
[08:48:30] Cpt Ishida (Delta Actual): Post here, Kain on me. Sarah cover this corridor.
[08:48:45] CWO3 Sarah glances over. "The way she was cloaked? It's questionable. We have any equipment to set up laser tripwires?" She nods to Suki. "Yes, ma'am."
[08:48:47] 2LT Kain Crokett understood.
[08:48:47] Cpt Ishida (Delta Actual): Komi you cover forward.
[08:48:56] 2Lt. Aylanea moves to post. "Yes, ma'am!"
[08:49:01] Cpt Ishida (Delta Actual) moves into engineering.
[08:49:14] 2LT Komillia Maeless: Yes, ma'am. Moves into the forward position…
[08:49:42] GM: After a tense few minutes you sweep engineering and find nothing else but a few dead bodies, three enginners and 2 security, not including the one in the corridor.
[08:49:48] 2LT Kain Crokett looks around for what was going on. [1d20+1] => [20,1] = (21) PERC, [1d100] => [27] = (27) vs 63 Intell
[08:50:07] 2LT Kain Crokett can see time.
[08:50:09] 2Lt. Aylanea: (( wow Kain ))
[08:51:26] GM: Kain, you can tell that the intruder was in here to sabotage the engines, there is a scorch mark near the reactor that tells you a charge was plaed and detonated. Luckily for us, (based on your intell roll) the intruder A: had no idea what they were looking at in terms of tech, and B: the engines were inert anyway because of the damage from the mis-jump into the system.
[08:51:41] GM: (9rater detonate the engines..))
[08:52:39] Cpt Ishida (Delta Actual): It would seem the Kami protected us.
[08:52:46] 2LT Kain Crokett: Someone didn't want us off this rock. Or hoped that destroying the engines would blow us up.
[08:52:52] Cpt Ishida (Delta Actual) nods
[08:53:43] Ships Intercom: CAG to the bridge!
[08:54:09] GM: After about 10 to 20 minutes…
[08:54:34] Ships Intercom: ALL CLEAR! ALL CLEAR!
[08:55:21] Cpt Ishida (Delta Actual) returns to the others, after reporting to the bridge. By this time, medics have removed the bodies, and repair teams have begun to patch up the damage caused by the intruder.
[08:56:23] Cpt Ishida (Delta Actual) waves Kain and Ay over.
[08:56:55] 2Lt. Aylanea moves over quickly.
[08:58:03] Cpt Ishida (Delta Actual): I want you on ready 5, in your cockpits. There was a launch flare from the jungle, not the derelict, shortly after the intruder gotpasted, we kicked off a few shots from the deckguns but failed to connect. Target broke orbit then jumped.
[08:58:36] 2LT Kain Crokett: Understood. What about our guest?
[08:58:49] Cpt Ishida (Delta Actual): Anhel has her.
[08:58:55] Cpt Ishida (Delta Actual): Oh, you mean the living one.
[08:59:06] 2LT Kain Crokett: Yes, the living one.
[08:59:20] 2Lt. Aylanea blinks at that and frowns. "Well, shit…" She nods. "Understood, will maintain ready 5 until further notice…"
[08:59:24] 2Lt. Aylanea: (( to the launch flare ))
[08:59:43] Cpt Ishida (Delta Actual): We keep her on lockdown for the time being. We are likly going to have visitors, and we dont have the manpower to spare for a babysitter.
[09:01:36] Cpt Ishida (Delta Actual) nods. Get your other pilots in their birds as well.
[09:02:03] 2LT Kain Crokett: Will do.
[09:02:30] GM: The encampment is locked down, the Rabbits are stowed and the defences are manned and the waiting begins.
[09:03:25] GM: A few days pass, and no enemy arrives, but the CAG refuses to lower the aleret rediness although she does allow the guest out of her cubby, under guard, and allows for rotations for the pilots, half on, half off.
[09:05:28] Febrith Nyx stretches out and goes to find the nearest person that may know what was going on and could be made to talk.
[09:05:36] GM: Anhel has done her autopsy and reports that aside frombeing physcially fit, the intruder has a slew of nanites in her bloodstream.
[09:06:23] GM: Nyx, you are given a suit of human armor
[09:06:27] GM: but no weapon
[09:06:30] Febrith Nyx: ((we killed Na'al…))
[09:06:43] Febrith Nyx puts the armor on.
[09:06:44] GM: ((/a/ Naal lol
[09:08:36] GM: Nyx, one of the others I'm sure clues you in, but they dont know all that much anyway,
[09:09:36] Febrith Nyx goes to the food hall and looks for someone to talk to.
[09:11:42] Febrith Nyx sees Kain and goes over and sits. "The first male I found that isn't trying to keep me locked away, or does your mistress just not care?
[09:11:59] CWO3 Sarah: (( hehe ))
[09:12:31] 2Lt. Aylanea sits on ready 5.
[09:12:37] 2LT Kain Crokett stops mid-bite and looks at Nyx increduously, "I'm sorry. What?!?"
[09:13:10] CWO3 Sarah glances up and over towards Nyx, from her own meal, blinking.
[09:13:17] GM: ((uh oh, James is playing with himself!)
[09:13:46] 2LT Kain Crokett: ((I gave Carrie a chance…))
[09:13:51] CWO3 Sarah: (( rar ))
[09:14:48] Febrith Nyx: Men tend to be subservient to women, so I assume you are here ultimately serving under a woman and that woman has not given you any orders in regards to me.
[09:15:08] GM: nod
[09:15:15] Febrith Nyx looks over to Sarah, "So did the demon of this ship give you your taint, or is there another reason for the red eyes.
[09:15:16] Febrith Nyx: ?
[09:16:02] 2LT Kain Crokett shakes his head and finishes chewing…
[09:17:15] CWO3 Sarah blinks at that and laughs just a little. "Well, least where I'm from the women tend to be in charge…" She snickers just a little, then blinks. "Er… There is no demon on this ship, just our translator. Poor girl…" She smiles just a little. "The reason for the red eyes is because I'm not human or Zentraedi like most of the people on the ship."
[09:19:02] Febrith Nyx: I guess human is like that one almond-eyed woman, and Zentraedi are a different breed or a different species? And what species are you?
[09:20:30] CWO3 Sarah: "Anhel and I are the only ones of our kind on ship, they're not exactly common in fleet at this point, due to the revolving door wars around Earth. Which… I'm hoping have ended for now." She shakes ehr head. "The Zentraedi aren't really all that different frmo the humans, neither are the tirolians. They 're all about the same. The Invid… well, aren't. And due to a long story and the basic mess of what happened, I had to essentially defect from the others."
[09:22:19] Febrith Nyx: I'll just look up the information when I can find your library to read your histories.
[09:22:34] CWO3 Sarah: "Too much power in the hands of too few people. Nowhere worse for demonstrating that than how the Invid were before the one on top made a few of them look like the humans while occupying their world. I'm not the only one who realized how bad it was and left." She smiles. "I'll explain it to you, no worries."
[09:25:12] CWO3 Sarah sighs. "Earth shouldn't even have been involved in the wars. If that tirolian who figured out how to use the Invid's flowers to generate power hadn't sent his ship off to the ends of the universe, they wouldn't be. But… I was only there and aware enough to understand it for the last part of the third war, but basically, ship crashed, and their world got bombarded to near destruction, by people wanting to get the ship back. Even after they lost, the remaining ones decided to remain a problem to keep them burning resources further…"
[09:26:33] Febrith Nyx: Law of Sentience number 4: The so-called enlightened are in fact the most barbarous and least rational.
[09:27:30] Febrith Nyx: People just like to use power to cover for their own insecurities and will cause more than anyone's due suffering because they are secretly scared, cowardly children.
[09:28:08] GM: On the other side of the mess hall, Suki strums on her Shamisen, adding a bit of ambiance to the area. The music selection is traditional japanese fare, hauntine and mellow.
[09:28:24] 2LT Kain Crokett nearly chokes on his food on that last comments.
[09:30:40] CWO3 Sarah ticks off on fingers. "A lot of the Zentraedi defected after finding out they got the short end of the stick culturewise. But that's the fault of the very small group of leaders among the Tirolians, who cloned them to be their private army to conquer an empire and hold it. And ignore the other tirolians to a large extent in the process evidently. One reason the Zentraedi were cloned were to eliminate the Invid from their second homeworld, by defoliating it. The flower at that point was the only thing we ate, and we would have lost it all had the hives not had a stockpile…" She shivers. "Anyway, the Invid at that point and through most of it were organized like a bug hive, the one sitting on top as the queen had absolute power ovoer all the others, so was able to get us away, and build an army. She was berzerk though, wanting to roast anyone using the flowers, on top of looking for a new place where we could grow…" She sighs. "which caused trouble later, but basically, the war between the Zentraedi adn Masters and the Invid caused enough of a drain their fuel reserves, that they came to Earth next, wanting to get the fuel reserve off the ship…"
[09:34:53] Febrith Nyx: You really want to find the best and assume good or at least a form of innocence in all but a few don't you?
[09:36:24] CWO3 Sarah: "that was another disasterous war for the humans, that saw another whole army basically destroyed, and them being left vulnerable again. Which was worse at that point, because in the last battle there, the fuel store with all the flower seeds broke open. And seeded the whole planet, to the point that the Invid queen-mother was able to find it. And without thinking at all, basically try to smash it into dust again, and smash everyone and even exterminate the local population, when they were fighting to get that world back. Because none of the Invid were able to tell her no. Then she decided to adapt them to Earth, and essentially made a bunch of us to look like them, and think for ourselves. And suddenly she doesn't have absolute power over those, some of us figured out how bad things had gotten and left. I for one got fed up with a bunch of things, then was rather mortified when I found out the whole truth that she didn't know and didn't care about. all she cared was "they look like tirolians, they use the flower, kill em."…" She shakes her head. "Bad bad bad… I'm rather convinced on some levels that if she'd sent a couple of the agents down to find out the whole of what happened, that we might have been able to just land and be welcomed, just by offering a protection deal for the flowers. The flowers are poisonus to them anyway." She sighs. "And there was plenty to go around anyway."
[09:38:10] Cpt Ishida (Delta Actual) thinks to herself wrly as she plays…"I'm sleeping with a hippie."
[09:44:48] CWO3 Sarah: "Anyway, after war number two, plenty of left over tirolians from the masters ships were stranded and joined the humans and Zentraedi there. And more joined here. Between wars, the original defense force left to find the second group, hoping to stop that war. They were too late, the second group was already en route. And they ran into the Invid before Earth did. Except that the all-father… well, he was nuts. He decided he could have his own empire, by conquering Tirol and everything else the masters held. So that launched into a whole separate war in deep space. Which the expedition finally won with the help of the sentinels. Too bad one of the sentinels was n't what they thought… the Haydonites acted all nice as part of that group, and helped fight the regent. then offered their superior technology to the humans and others ,to get Earth back… Then made sure all of it was sabotaged. Truth about them is that they'd annhilated the Invid's original homeworld, we'd seen their cloaking and plantkiller weaponry before, they tried to exterminate us with it well before any of the rest. But… the humans didn't know that, until they tested one of the warheads. Once the Invid saw that tech, well, for one, the queen-mother was mad more at the humans for showing up with that kind of evil, and two, that it was the same as before, evacuate instead of being destroyed. She also disabled the warheads on her way out, which saved the planet intact." She sighs. "Those of us who left the Invid during that war, though, well, we stayed, despite the incoming danger. Honestly, she was starting to clue in about things again by the end of the third war. I'm wondering if she won't loook in and see how the war is going at smoe point. Honestly, the Haydonites are our ancient enemies, before anyone else. The only reason I can figure for her not wanting to join a war to stop them, is either not knowing, or considering it impossible to win. For the Invid's tech, well, since the protoculture is from our flowers, we have sensors to detect it. The cloaks make that tech not work, and left them helpless essentially to the attacks from them." She shakes her head…
[09:44:58] CWO3 Sarah: (( the short version of the robotech wars, according to Sarah ))
[09:44:59] CWO3 Sarah: (( fear that ))
[09:45:02] CWO3 Sarah: (( hehehe ))
[09:46:08] Febrith Nyx: ((AFK BIO))
[09:46:26] Cpt Ishida (Delta Actual): ((OK))
[09:51:14] CWO3 Sarah: "We were busily trying to find a way to stop the haydonites, when we ran into something that dumped us here instead. And hell, there's stuff from the wars that even I don't know. I try to see good in people. I've seen too much bad. Even in my own. There started to be problems within the Invid when the more indepent human form ones started having issues with each other as well." She sighs. "Welcome to the universe as I know it. If Optera hadn't been defoliated, things might be a lot different, but a few greedy people wanting everything to themselves." She shrugs. "At anyrate, leads to now, with the haydonite wars, and bizarreness others can probably explain better than me, on stopping them." she shakes her head slightly. s
[09:52:29] Febrith Nyx: Sounds like I have a lot of reading to do. I can't tell you much about my own planet's past. WE every so often seem to undergo a memory wipe the resests our civilization level to about medieval times. We know this because we can find bits of technology from before then that we try to reverse engineer and advance what tech we do have. One of the main goals of the Vrocta'Sern is not only to acquire and examine this lost tech, but to prevent our enemies from exploiting the same tech.
[09:53:15] CWO3 Sarah blinks at that and frowns.
[09:53:43] CWO3 Sarah: "And no evidence of what causes the wipe?"
[09:54:58] Febrith Nyx: None.
[09:55:46] GM: As you sit there the GQ alarm goes off
[09:56:08] Febrith Nyx: Back to my lock down.
[09:56:49] CWO3 Sarah blinks at the GQ alarm, scrambling up.
[09:56:55] 2LT Kain Crokett puts his food down and goes to his fighter.
[09:57:09] 2Lt. Aylanea stands at ready 5, awaiting launch orders.
[09:57:21] CWO3 Sarah scurries to get to her fighter.
[09:58:53] GM: You do the shuffle and once you reach your fighters, which have been secreted within the forest in little clearings, hidden in the trees powered down…you are informed that signature that is likely a jump in, has occured in orbit and that sensors are tracking a mid sized ship (roughly Garfish size) entering the atmospgere, heading our way.
[09:59:38] GM: It does not take all that long but you are able to get a visual on the ship (Exploration Ship) on the chart in AIM
[09:59:43] 2LT Kain Crokett: Keep formation, do not fire until they prove hostile intent.
[10:01:05] Cpt Ishida (Delta Actual) nods, good, she didn't have to give that instruction and was rather grateful she didnt have to.
[10:02:06] Cpt Ishida (Delta Actual): The craft decends and slows and deploys a quartet of mecha (roughly 40 foot tall, organic looking clean lines James you know what they look like)
[10:02:23] GM: Alias fail…moving on
[10:03:12] 2LT Kain Crokett: ((nod))
[10:03:46] GM: They land on the outskirts and proceed in using decent combat spacing.
[10:04:14] GM: The, ship paces them then halts and the mecha halt as well, then hunker down.
[10:04:56] 2LT Kain Crokett: Alright, switch to guardian and form a line about 100 feet away from the bogeys. Do not fire until hostile intent is confirmed.
[10:05:22] Cpt Ishida (Delta Actual): Cancel that.
[10:05:33] Cpt Ishida (Delta Actual): We dont want to ghost our positions.
[10:05:46] Cpt Ishida (Delta Actual): They must have seen the AA emplacements.
[10:06:47] Sgt. Summerwind: [1d100] => [46] = (46)
[10:07:27] GM: The ship backs off a tad then deplys about 20 troopers in some sort of powered armor.
[10:07:54] GM: Meanwhile powerful spot lights from the hovering ship play over the encampment
[10:08:45] GM: Roll percs and or RSI
[10:08:59] 2LT Kain Crokett: [1d20+1] => [13,1] = (14)
[10:09:16] CWO3 Sarah: [1d20+1] => [6,1] = (7) perc [1d100] => [12] = (12) vs. 80% rsi
[10:09:28] 2LT Kain Crokett: [1d100] => [84] = (84) vs 60 RSI

[10:09:47] 2Lt. Aylanea: [1d20] => [15] = (15) perc, [1d100] => [78] = (78) vs. 73% rsi
[10:11:37] GM: Komi and Sarah notice an energy spike about 200 miles up. Ay, you notice thru the canopy of trees a few flickers of light above, and the flicker gets larger.
[10:12:02] 2Lt. Aylanea blinks up at the light flickers, pointing them out. "Something flickering up there…"
[10:12:20] GM: [1d100] => [75] = (75)
[10:12:20] GM: [1d100] => [71] = (71)

[10:12:21] GM: [1d100] => [91] = (91)
[10:12:25] CWO3 Sarah frowns ."And an energy spike…" She looks to Kain.
[10:12:37] 2LT Kain Crokett: Evasive Actions.
[10:13:31] GM: The energy spikes are reealed to be orbital artillery and 6 energy blasts from on high impact the ground
[10:13:51] GM: two strike the lake behind the VM sending massive gysers of water into the air.
[10:14:29] GM: two hit the ruins and obliterate them in a crimson one two punch
[10:14:38] CWO3 Sarah frowns at that. "Oh shit…" She sighs. "Well, I'd say that confirms intent…"
[10:15:06] GM: two others hit south of the ruins, doing little but tearing a nice big chunk out of the shore and treeline
[10:15:47] GM: The hovering ship slews to the left and backwards.
[10:16:10] GM: actions/
[10:16:12] GM: ?
[10:16:35] 2LT Kain Crokett: ((I'm thinking.))
[10:16:53] GM: ((correction, slews to the right, angling away from the impacts that hit the ruins))
[10:17:25] 2LT Kain Crokett will take a look around to try and figure out exactly what the hovering ship is going to do. [1d20+1] => [5,1] = (6) PERC, [1d100] => [48] = (48) vs 60 RSI, [1d100] => [56] = (56) vs 63 Intelligence
[10:17:52] GM: The hovering ship is trying to backaway and gain altitude.
[10:18:49] CWO3 Sarah blinks at the hovering ship moving off. "Or… are they shooting at the other ship as well? Or only at the other one really?" She frowns a little at that, bracing for anything, and trying to evaluate what she's seeing. [1d100] => [54] = (54) vs. 99% (tactics) [1d100] => [78] = (78) vs. 69% (fleet tactics), [1d100] => [29] = (29) vs. 80 rsi, [1d20+1] => [13,1] = (14) perc
[10:18:52] GM: As this occures, the VM's topside deck guns raise their barrels and open fire upwards
[10:19:13] GM: [1d20] => [15] = (15)
[10:19:13] GM: [1d20] => [2] = (2)

[10:19:18] GM: [1d100] => [48] = (48)
[10:19:45] CWO3 Sarah frowns and watches the whole thing, bracing for anything that might happen.
[10:20:37] GM: 6 more shots impact the ground, two are plane misses if the ship was the intended target, one obliterates the shoreside pier and two others impact nehind the hovering ship
[10:20:52] 2LT Kain Crokett considers the need to attack the unknown mecha. [1d20+1] => [19,1] = (20) PERCS to their actions, [1d100] => [51] = (51) vs 60 RSI, [1d100] => [12] = (12) vs 63 Intelligence, [1d100] => [76] = (76) vs 50 Track People
[10:21:00] 2LT Kain Crokett: [1d30] => [21] = (21) vs 14 IQ
[10:21:04] GM: this time the hovering ship opens fire, upwards.
[10:21:05] CWO3 Sarah frowns at the pier hit. =
[10:21:21] GM: The unkn mecha and troopers are going to ground.

[10:21:57] 2LT Kain Crokett: The hovering ship is not our enemies. Stay in the sky and prepare to intercept any enemy craft that appear to be in pursuit.
[10:22:18] GM: ((none of us are airborne, we are all in the trees…
[10:22:25] GM: in small clearings
[10:22:59] 2LT Kain Crokett: ((Fine.)) Keep eyes on the sky and prepare to engage any descending forces.
[10:23:12] CWO3 Sarah: "Acknowledged…"
[10:23:26] GM: the raining fire seems to be getting abit more accurate,
[10:23:42] GM: until finally a pair hits the hovering ship.
[10:24:05] GM: the fire is also getting closer
[10:24:34] GM: A combat feed from the VM tells you that a second ship similer in size is decending
[10:25:15] GM: Also, the decending ship has unleased mecha
[10:25:40] 2LT Kain Crokett: Nobel Squardron prepare to intercept incomine mecha. Watch for enemy bombardment.
[10:26:52] GM: inits
[10:26:56] 2Lt. Aylanea: "Roger that!"
[10:27:07] 2Lt. Aylanea: (( we're just in alphas, right? ))
[10:27:22] GM: Well, some are in Delta's others in Gamma's…
[10:27:38] 2Lt. Aylanea: (( as opposed to full legios I mean ))
[10:28:00] GM: correct, and likely in battloid mode, to facilitate ease of launch in your hidy holes
